    257A. Rudy Fischmann's "Episode 18": The World's First (And Last?) Triple-Album Cancer Charity Rock Opera (Discograffiti Soldiers Of Sound Podcast Ep 127)

    So it was exactly six years ago this month that primary SOS host Rudy Fischmann started work on an ill-advised project— a rock opera. It was ill-advised because Rudy is actually living with brain cancer, and lacks enough left hand coordination to actually play any instruments traditionally, nor the energy. Still, he’s managed to pull it off with the help of 60 other people from 12 nations around the globe. It may not be major musical history, but it’s an absolute first of its kind.  So minor music history? The whole thing serves as a fundraiser for two great cancer charities… both very closely associated with rock opera kings The Who. We’re talking about Teen Cancer America and the Teenage Cancer Trust in the UK.  So check out this podcast to learn more about this big, dumb idea that became a brilliant reality, and some of the people who helped make it possible.  To learn more specifics on the rock opera and its fundraising component, visit: https://www.episode18.com It's simple, really: the music is free, but make a donation to either charity and you're entitled (if you want) to digital downloads, a printed booklet of liner notes, and a lyric/story script. Rudy's not looking to fill your life with clutter... just to get you to take a listen to his music, and for you to share some love with teens going through cancer. All music is available on most music streaming apps and YouTube. Just search for “Episode 18” by That Cancer Life. Get to know your new music-obsessed friends in Rudy Fischmann's fascinating podcast-within-a-podcast, The Discograffiti Soldiers Of Sound Podcast, created exclusively by & for Discograffiti's Patreon "Soldiers of Sound" community, where you get to be the guest!

Here are just a few of the many things that Joe discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: How Arthur found the musicians that would populate the second iteration of Love; The massive stylistic differences with which the new Love boldly led; The wild drug habits of the new crop of guys; Insane stories about Arthur’s dog from that era, which was named Self; The very unique recording situation that begat both records; The track selection process that was agreed upon by Elektra’s Jac Holzman and Blue Thumb’s Bob Krasnow; The details behind the abjectly disastrous one-off reunion of the original Love for one final live performance; And an in-depth, track-by-track deep dive on every song off Four Sail & Out Here.

Host Dave Gebroe talks with legendary Jefferson Airplane bassist Jack Casady about the classic psych band’s entire recorded output (for over a dozen hours total), with commentary on their history, wild stories, and star ratings for every release. Feed Your Head: The Great Jefferson Airplane Deep Dive was consciously crafted to act as the ultimate repository of fact and opinion on one of the greatest bands to ever walk the face of the earth, the almighty Jefferson Airplane. As a celebration of the kick-off to what is going to be one hell of a wild ride, this entire episode will be available free of charge on Discograffiti’s public stream! (...with the implied agreement that, in return, you’ll subscribe to our Patreon to hear all the rest of the series!)  Going in to this interview, I was under the impression that this might be the only time I’d ever get with Jack. However, after he experienced the legendary “Discograffiti effect,” Jack generously afforded me carte blanche to talk at great length about each of the Airplane’s records. Part 1 is the first part of my first interview with Jack, in which we cover his life story all the way up to the Summer of Love, just as Jefferson Airplane started making their third LP, After Bathing At Baxter’s. Here are just a few of the many things that Jack discusses with Discograffiti in this podcast: The foundational, near-death experience with which he dealt as a child; His holy sh*t moment of creative epiphany; His first band—also featuring Jorma Kaukonen—which the two best friends formed back in 1958; Who almost got the bass gig in the Airplane before it was proposed to Jack; The early gigs and the making of the band’s debut record; The profound growth the band experienced between the debut and Surrealistic Pillow; Jack’s frank thoughts on free love; And the very beginning of the Baxter’s lunacy.
